**Coaching and Self Efficacy**

**Self-efficacy refers to beliefs about one’s own capability to learn or perform behaviours at designated levels (Bandura, 1986, 1997). The theory of self-efficacy was first published by Bandura in 1977. Since then self-efficacy has been researched in many fields and found to be related to clinical problems such as phobias, addiction, depression, social skills, assertiveness; to stress in a variety of contexts; to smoking behaviour; to pain control; to health; and to athletic performance (Pajares, 1997).** **Self-efficacy beliefs have also received increasing attention in education. Much research shows that self-efficacy influences academic motivation, learning, and achievement (Pajares, 1996; Schunk, 1995).**
